Within two wce!;s the FBI called on 
Julius Rosenberg. They asked him to 
accompany them to FBI headquarters. 
Ethel urged him to go. **Davey$ In 
trouble, •• she said, “maybe you can . 
help him/* After questioning him at 
headquarters three hours they told him 
that Creenglass had been arrested as 
an atom spy. had confessed and had 
implicated Julius Rosenberg. 

Had Greens lass really conf essed at ' 
that point? Had he in fact hnplicated 
ftosenberg? These questions are vitally 
Important. In any event, here is what 
look place on the night of Greeiighiss' 
arrest^, according lo Grcen*fi»*s’ twit 
testimony at the Rosenbrrgs* trial.

Greenglass was In the apartment 
preparing formula for their new child.

herself a few days earlier and was In

knock on the door. Tlie voum; father 
answered It. Four FBI agents walked 
In. They told him he was under ar- 
rest on charges of committing espion-

. March 9. Idal. Prompter at 10:30 a.m. 
a cterk*of 'Court aoiemniy intoned: 

"The United Stales of America versus 
Julius Rosenberg, sitiel Itascuberg and 
Morton Sobell." 

. U. 8. Atty. Irving Suypol announced 
. that the government was ready. 

Attorneys for the defendants (Enian* 
iiel H. Bloch and his father, Aiaxander 
8io(‘h. tepresented the Rosenborgs; 
Sobell was represented by Edward M. 
Kunu and Harold M. Phllfipsi made 
several motions to dismiss the charges. 
These were bru.shed aside by Hudge . 
Irving Kaufman. 

lUCf vs. I/UCM>! #»dge Kaufman de* 
.nied a defense ^laHenge of a talesman 
who worked for Time-Ufe and shared 
Henry Z.uce's views on international . 
affairs; but sustained a government 
eitalicnge of a oro-specUve Juror who 
read NATIONAL CUABOIAN, 

Nearly 300 talwsmen were d»eationed 
before a Jury of 12 plus four alter* 
nates could be seated. Considering the 
cea.seles$ barrage ^ press and radio 
statements by the prosecutor, PBt’s J. 
Edgar Hoover and Atty. Ocii. »I. Howard 
McGrath for eight months prior to the 
■ trial, hammerhtg into the m nds of the 
public the certainty that the Rosen* 
bergs were guilty and that mountains 
Of evidence existed to prove th's. it i* 
surprising that lO citizens could be 
found who could swear under oath 
they had formed no opinions as to the 
guilt of the accused. It is s'ngu ar also 
that In a city more than 30% Jewish 
in population, not a single toiesman of 
3e«4sh extraction survived the day and 
a half of questioning before a Jury was 
-.sea^ted. 

Cif AIR-HUNGRY PRESS; The gov- 
ernment anno«inced it would call lit

'•’Untleflnabic teit.scners pervaded the 
Courtroom," wrote Moyer Berger in the 
K.y. Times, "The silence was extra- 
ordinary" as the trial got under way, ' 
To prc.s8 and public, the quc-tUon 
seemed to be not the guilt, or innocence 
of the defendanht; but whether or not 
they would be given the death penalty. 

tludgc KaMrtn.an hlm.«lf, during 
quc.sltontng of one talesman, said It 
was lor him alone to decide whether to. 
Impcee death or a lower penalty. The 
Judge caught htm.<wlf only after attor- 
ns Emanuel Bloch pointed out the 
jii ry's verdict m'ght be for aequtttai, 
m tking It unnecewiary for the Judge 
to Impose any sentence at all.)

By William A. Reuben 

rei*»rt«t 

Mar. 1951, eight moivttu after 
^ he was arreitcd on charges of spy* 
tnc for the U.3.S.E.» Julius Rosenberg 
took the witness stand in this country’s 
'Arst atom-bomb spy trial. During the 
fight months the Ameiican public had 
been bombarded with a ceaseless pro* 
paganda barrage, designed to convince 
Irhem of the certain guilt of the ft* 
year old Rosenberg and his 35-year*old 
Wfe, Ethel. 

HU wife’s brother and sUter-in4aw, 
David and Ruth Oreengiass. had por 
Irayed Julius as a master spy— a man 
of Intrigue^ mystery, cunning and ubi 
liuitous wisdom such as moves In the 
pages of E. Phillips Oppenheim^ Ac* 
cording to them, Rosenberg was the 
central figure in a spy ring which began 
during World War It and continued 
throughout the cold war, dedicated to 
obtaining A-bomb and other secret in* 
formation for transmls.$lon to Mo 5 com% 

The Orccnglasses* portrayal had him 
being furnished by the Russians with 
unlimited financial resources to recruit 
other. spies; to establish contacts with 
scientists In government agencies and. 
key defense plants; to spend $60-7$ 
f tery night for entertaining; to sub* 
iidUe the college education of Hkely 
espionage prospects; and to furnish his 
confederates with large sums of money 
lo lice thU country and find eventual 
haven ••behind the Iron Curtain.*’ 

WHAT! NO PUMPKIN? As a token Of 
their appreciation for hU service, ••tho 
Itttssians,** according to the Orcen* 
glasses, had given Rosenberg a citation 
which entitled him to special privileges; 
lakhcs for himself and his *

hk boldness about the use of his name, 
Ah the key figures in the spy ring 
parudonymnp in their espionage acti« 
irlties. <Oold Skid he was known as 
*'Dave from Pittsburgh”; Bentley tesU* 
Aed that her confederates knew her 
•Mhcr as "Mary” or "Heien"; «id 
Anatoli Yakovlev. Soviet consular ofB^ 
cial who teturned home from If. 8. 

lour years liefore he was {hdicted ahi 
hamed as a defendant in the ease, wm 
described as having been known to ids 
hndcrlings only as ''John",! But If the 
mysterious "JuHus" mentioned in tesd* 
anony of Bentley and Gold (QBARDiAlf. 
Aug. 22) was indeed Julius Rosenberg, 
then he apparently wa.s the only person 
In the ring whose IdentHy was not , 
masked by a false name. Neither Odtd 
nor Bentley could testify to knowing 
Rosenberg, but both testified that 
"Julius’’ was a key w'ord in the con* 
spiracy. being used to Identify die 
master>spy In telephone conversadons 
and in a password. fThe OtIARDIAN 
has shown that If this name did reeur 
in the plot, it probably served to tden* . 
tify Dr. Klaus Fuchs, confessed arch* 
conspirator who was known to intimates 
here as Julius.) 

KVCRYTJflNG BUT EVlBlNCei Not* 
Withstanding the intrigue, mystery, ex* 
citement, drama and real-life whodunit 
dualities of the government's portrayal 
bf Rosenberg, there was fust one factor 
missing: not a shred of it could 
supported by even a scintilla of evi* 
dence. Nor was any evidence bScred 
even to try to support It 
If these headline-seeking allegations 
about Julius Rosenberg were Indeed 
faetunl. It would seem that the govern* 
ment surely could have produced smne 
evidence or testimony that: I 

fa He was known to other memwrt'

msitions nor testimony were product

Rosenberg Case t " 

(Continued from Ptge i) 

„.Jch Rosenber* vohed the opintoo 
thftt the Soviet Union WM »UU hsarlng 
the "heavleet load** ot tepeU nf the 
Oermany Army, and that a sjoond 
front should have been opened sooner. 

NOT SO aiASTEBFUL: AVhat 5 lve# thO 
dearest hint that the Rosenbergs arO 
victims of a political Irame-up U thatf 
the 13 ‘'overt acts" listed In Uve Indict* ; 
ment all occur during the d:*inontR 
l>eriod preceding y«Hus’ dism'ssal from 
his Signal Corps job on charges that 
he was a Comutun’st Party member— , 
a period during wli'ch he surely must 
have been under tnvesUgatioa on these 
charges. \ ^ 

Rosenberg's open and constant es* 
pousal ol the Soviet s ro e against Hit* 
lerism during his employment by the 
U.8. Signal Corps was known to his 
superiors a’hcn he was dlsm'ssrd as a 
'•communist" In Peb., 1045. If Indeed his 
discussions during this, very period 
were not only about politics, but about 
espionage, this fact would e.rtalnly 
have recurred In the ae:u.sa lors bring- 
ing about his dismissal: also, If this had 
been the case, the government cha-ac* 
terlzatlon of him a.t a "master sp;** in 
this period would be a wild over-estl* 
mate of perhaps the most lo:pt spy Hi 
all history. ^ i 

A "SINrSTEB" TYPIST? Ethel Rosen* 
berg, when she followed her h.wband 
onfihc stand, also denied categorically

The government had outilned to the

Rosenbergs for whicti It offered tid 
lestUnony or documentary proof. As the 
OUAEDIAN pointed out last week. Ihli 
♦'headline” case not only was supported 
by no evidence whatsoever, but the de* 
tails of it were not even contained in 
the "overt acts’" charged in the Indict* 
ment. Instead, the ”overt acts” were 
ordinary day*to^day activities of * 
typical young New York progressive 
couple, distorted Into ^charges” by the 
testimony of three witnesses all of 
whom bought light sentences or int* 
inunlty by offering Incriminating ver^ 
slons of these alleged ”over| acts.** 
.However, the case against the Eosc|t« 
wrgs as presented in the ”overl acli’* 

« was clearly not sufficient to win I a 
conviction unless the couple cou!il

irms ISSUE of the OUAEpiAN 
DCS to press, the appeals of JuMus 
and *EtheJ EosenPerg for reversll of 
t>heir convictions and death sentinces 
on charges of atomic spying arc Pefore 
U)e January term of the u.S, Circuit 
Court of Appeals In New York. 

The appeal brief was filed with the 
court Nov. 5 by defense attorney 
IBmanuel H. Bloch iOUARDIAN, Nov, 
My,, My last week the defense had not 
j*ecelved a copy of the government’s 
leply brief. Also before the same court 
was the appeal of Morion Sobell, con- 
Yicled with the Hosenbergs as an ac- 
complice— without a single overt act 
being charged against him— and sen- 
tenced to 30 years in prison. 

The convictions of ail three w^ere ob- 
tained enyrely on the testimony of 
persons over whom the government 
held the threat of imprisonment and 
oven death for espionage. There was 
fio corroboration of any of the mcriml- 
patlon Intended by ihls testimony. 

A RED IS A BEY IS A EEOj Instead, 
prosecution and court joined in a de- 
liberate process of depicting the young 
New York parents as communists atid 
In underseorlng to the Jury the con- 
ientlom that all communlsls are per m. y: 
^pies for the Soviet Union. The appeal ^ 
brief states in this regard; , • ; L

The decision climaxed a year in which 
Ethel Rosenlierjr’s pre<1lrtion--^that “the 
c^Ui ' C popiUution wlM be ad verily 
a Toe led by our persecution"— has b|en 
hicreasinjjly connrmed. Ever since the 
l^psenbergs' conviction J. Edgar Hoew^er 
aid Atty. Oen. McGrath have been 
promising that more **spy’* arrests 
would follow. With the Appeals Court 
opinion written into law, the number 
of Americans who can legally be jailed 
or executed for "espionage*- seemed 
limited only by the capacities of the 
machinery for arianging convictions. 

The press played Its part to the end 
by wilful distortion of the defense ar- 
guments where these were not sup- 
pressed altogether. 

SCArrdLO SraiANTICS: The Eosen- 
bergs* appeal submitted by attorney 
Emanuel Bloeh first challenged the 
consiltutlonality oi the espionage sta- 
lute under which tlicy were put on 
trial: Its reference to transmitting In- 
formation "rotating to national defense" 
dehes clear-ciit interpretation and thus 
violates the First* Fifth and Sixth 
AmendnWivts, Undefined by any legal 
or standard dictionary, "national de- 
fense" can be made to contain what- 
ever meaning anyone would want to 
ascribe to it— an argument cotrobo- 
rated by the U.S. Supreme Court’s one 
purported definition vrhich calls It

dcnie” joyfMlJy passed on the deception. 
The ImplicaMons tor the American peo- 
ple, at a time when ’'responslWc" pct- 
sons denounce even Acheson, Truman 
and Marshal! as pro-communist, wre 
clear. . 

The only positive teetimony at the 
trial coneemlng the Eosenbergs’ "com- 
munism" was that tliey had expressed 
prelerence for a certain form of social- 
economic orggnlzathsa— not for a gov- 
ernment. What follows from Ihe deci- 
sion is that approval of the social , 
and/or eeohomic policies of any foreign 
govemmeht is declared a motive for 
criminal attempt to commit espion- 
age for that government, one of 
the md.st grievous crimes on the statute 
book. With regard to Americans Joining 
an organiaailon {which the Eosenbergs 
were not shown to have done), the 
decision wipes away the wiiole doctrine 
of personal gafit, making each persons 
liable for aB actions of any of the top 
leadership even though they know 
nothing about them. , . .

■ It is thus in general easier to secure a conviction for con- 

1 Piracy than for any other offense, for less has actually to bJ 
‘^roy6ti against the defendants; and prejudice ot excitement may 
eatl a Jury to comict parties on a mere allegation that they 
ifiieetl ot arranged together to do something, under circum-^ 

• g.-t where, it it were necessary to prove some positive criminal 

■ ^ acquit because there ’wduW be nb 

at; all of any such act^ '' ^ ^ 

. , To .^care a conviction is moreover made easiw~ stilt by the 

^ peculiar role of evidence. In all nornwl casw no •

GrccngJoss: ’terrible incentive for lying* f 

l^HE principal witness against the Rosenbergs was David Greeiv 
1 * glass. There were an unusually large number of reasons fer 
{mistrusting hi5 evidence. To begin - with* he had pleaded guilty 
to the con-spiracy for which the Rosenbergs were being tried, 
r: ^ but had not yet been brought up for sentence; thus, he might 



hope, and he espressly said that he did hope, to obtain some 
acTyantage for himself a.s a result of giving evidence against 
Roseubergs; for the Court might ultimately give him a light 
sentowe. and even If it gave him a substantial one. the Govern# 
ment might mnit much or all ol it. He thus had stroni 
motive to it on/' In addition, he was, of course, fully esiabl 
hshed by hil? plea of guilty* by his evidence, and by ^unouiidina 
circumstances isueh m his possession of substaniiai sums of 
money which could only be eKplalned on the basis that he was 
telling itie trvith when be said that he was selling milltafy secrets 
for m«eyl^ lo have been a party to a conspiracy which both 
he himseli iiiid the prosecution described as a mosl' serious one,

, .V/an«*s wb» was 'scarpitt To d?.ofh* 

evidence of the two Crecnglasses was almost the only ‘ 
* evidence against the Rosenbergs; bnt it is necessary just to 
examine what other evidence there was. I begin with Maio 
Elitchcr, a man who had worked in the Bureau ol Ordnance of 
the Navy Dept. He was mainly a witness against the other de-* 
fendantr Sobell, but he did say that on three occa.sions Juliua 
Rosenberg asked him to obtain confidential information for him 
for Soviet purposes. He said, however, that he had not done so; 
and it is noticeable that none of the "overt acts ’ alleged against 
tht Rosenbergs in the indictment covered the interview related 
by Elitcher; he said, moreover, in cro.ss-e.xamlnation, that two of 
^***^®® tneetings with Rosenberg were merely social. 

Eiitoht* made it Qoite plain that he himself was an accom* 
pitg«. As he said, "I was part of It.’’ He admitted, too, that he ba4 ^ 
mirwia lies under oath, and that, being ’’scared to deaths’ he hat ? 

told the ^ "evcrythiire he lc«ew"~althd«gh he had lied t« theijk 

• 3 ^' : tod*-m Hie hope that he might "come out the best wa^ and thai * 
^ happeii to him." Fop some unexplahlefl reason, f 

' even mentiwed in the Mdietment 

>i>' ' as tt eo^eonspirator. ft is obvious that his evidence can add prae* . 
- i . Wfsahy hbthiag to that of theOreenglasses; it is of little volumo 
'■4;???»hd bl- almost' equal^ poop qualHy..r • . , 

rt , ,i ,,, Of the remainihg it prosecution witnessbi, bhi$ fo^ gavef 
evidenee of anything the Rosenbergs were alleged have saidl 
OP dCrne,; Dorothy Abel, the “Slstep of Ruth Gi*eenglas$, ^ve evl-| 
donee that she had onee been asked to leave the room whUsti 
her sister talked with duHos Rosenberg and that the Ibttsp had 
onee In her pre.senee praised the Soviet system and desePmed the 
D.S, A. as '"capitalistle’’l A Dr, Bernhardt, Julias Rosenberg'f ' 
physician, proved that Rosenberg asked him in lOSd what inocu- 
lations were needed for anyone entering Mexico. Two othw wtt- H 
nesses, a Mrsi c<»t and a Idr. Schneider, gave evldenee "Itt " 

' rebuttal,'' aiier the close of the defendant^ easei aboul fhf'l 
Rosenbergs on points that inay fairly , be left hRmeittioned a*,? 
trivial. The remaining IJ witnesses cither gave ijo evidence at - 
all that bpre wi the Rosenbergs, or merely ntentloned thefer name ^ 
- as hearsay,?;; -^%oS ■/; ■■ : - 

Thus, the prosecution case against the Rosenbergs rested on' * 
. ^ evidence of three persons, two of them hupbatid and wife, and 
ail of th^n unreiiable as accomplices aitd for «^her reasons too^ 
t There was «e coiToboration M tttc^ story aaaf independenl. 

; other police offieiaii 1^ alone any member ^ 

| ®f the iiaeral pabllc, was called to say that either the Rosen* 
bergs had ever said or done any thing in Ihelr fwesence or hearing 
H^withsteading poUee searches of their home, to Une of writing 
of ahy^M they had ever written, received, or «t» scei't 

was atowrtd. 'fhet'e was nothing of any kind 1i» evidence sgoins| 
the two OreengtaSses and Mtch^ Md said. * , 
atn nheble to beikve that, if the ease had not involved pohtieat 
topkS of had not been heard at a period when hy^rb and • 
;; pr played so .strong a role, evitonce so wssdc would have* 

; been pi*t forward by the prosecution In any country In the world. 

; whieii followed the AnglO'Saxon traditions and procedure,! thlnic 
that under those conditions any coart would alnmalt certainly 
Mv# withdrawn the ease from the jury. But this ease was allowed 




to the Jury and the Rosenbergs were not only convicted bul 
sentenced to death. * 

Rosenbergs, wlio at every stage asserted ^eir innecence* ' 
iito evldefiee and called two other witnesses; the» la^r dealt 
wito points which ean fairly be registered ae uahuporlant. tn Wg

and answering fxilly and coHslstentty everything that was alleged 
agaii»t them. Nothing wa.i established against their character, 
i unless it be that they had talked of the Soviet economic system, 
had thought that the Soviet Union was at one stage bearing the 
brunt of the Second World War, and had had In their possessioit

just the vital fnformatiott that enabled that country to ^veloh

the history of the world’' to the injury of the H> S. A f Incident 
rally, although it could have been alleged Iti the thdictmeat that 
the conspirators had acted with intent to injure the U.S.A., no 
such atlegaiiOn was pleaded.)' V; , z 


' I am forced to the conciusion that, even if the convietion bif 
the Rosenbergs had rested on reliable evidence that th^ had, 
conspired to obtain some, information, any. sentenee expressed 
by the judge to be based on such inaccurate and unproved as* 
sertions as to tire importance of the information would have to 
be set aside on appeal under any procedure which provl^d foe 
a free review of the .sentence by an Appellate Courfc 

bnfortonateiy. the procedure applicable to this cast does n<^ 
provide for such a review, any more than it provides for a eon* 
.sidet’atioii Of the credibility of the witnesses or the reliability ^ 
the evidenee. Were the procedure differenh ft ms^ well be that 
the whoh^ matter would have been disposed of already. But there 
fet, in effect, no armeal at all to any court from either Of the two 
main defects of this trial, namely, the unreliability of the evi* 
flcnei* and the gravely exces^ve sentence. 

The duty of seeming a review on these points thus rests on 
>«bnG opinion through the world. After full study, for the reasons/ 
which i have expressed above, I must express the view, froin aj 
jwreiy professional standpoint, that ft would offend againet aiu 
inglo-Saxon standards of ju.stlce that the convictions, let alonq 
tile sentence, of the Rosenbergs should be allowed to stand, *

IN THIS THANKSGIVING SEASON, 'me of the OHARDIAN itsiff 
» elvc special thanks lor the opporUmity allorded «s fo«r y<^* 
ago to bring to national and world attention the frame-ttp 
Trenton Six; and similarly In the Rosenberg Case in l»5l-5^ _ 
The victories won in the Trenton Case— which the 
h. S. press ignored when we took it ap to 1948— indicate what 
the people can do to right Injustice when they can at tl» 
facts. It has taken more than four years, but now the «or« l« 
that four of the Six who were condemned to death are toc Aha 
a new trial has been granted the other two <«ee p. l)--WJt» 
every indlcatitMi that they, too, W'ill go free. Thus the W* 

off by Uve original GUARDIAN stories on H»e case, kindling to^. . 
ctignaiion and protest all over the world, is winnliig the W^t 
nptabic victory of its kind since the Scottsboro Case, - ■; ' 1 1 

An even greater world protest, in a »nich Shortet 
^ time, is mounting over the Rosenberg Oase—on which the
